Breaking News: Kurt Angle Arrested
 

The following is from http://www.wpxi.com/sports/14263911/detail.html

MOON TOWNSHIP, Pa. -- Wrestler and former Olympian Kurt Angle was arrested on a charge of drunk driving last Friday afternoon.

Moon Township police got a report of an erratic driver. The description of the car and the driver matched that of Angle.

Police went to Angle's home and they said he admitted to driving the car home from a local bar.

Officials said Angle failed a field sobriety test but refused a blood test. Angle is charged with driving under the influence and careless driving.

Angle won a gold medal in wrestling at the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta.

Could he be anymore crazy these days?

lol

I was expecting to see he'd been arrested on charges of killing his wife. So yes, he could be more crazy.

Went to his home? That's fucked up. He made it all the way without getting pulled over and thenthey went there anyway? That's fuckin blasphemous

If anything he should just be given a slap on the hand. Or some new medal for not killing anyone on the way back. :roll:

Hey, had a family member arrested once for drunk driving without being in a veichle. He was drunk in a public area and it takes a car to get there, so they assumed it and arrested him.

THIS IS MADNESS!

THIS IS MOON TOWNSHIP, PA. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Still doesn't mean it's messed up. He should just get a slap on the hand or a fine...arresting him is just bad publicity for TNA (like they need it right now).

He's drunk, he's DAMN drunk!

he needs to drop the crazy gimmick and go back to funny kurt.

Yeah cause heaven forbid the cops actually do their job. It's not their fault TNA employs a dipshit.

Gimmick? :?: :-\

Angle is a fucking retard. Drunk drivers should get more than a "slap on the wrist".

LKE A FREAKIN" BROKEN NECK?

He still drove with a freakin' drunken neck.

This article is false. Kurt Angle drinks only milk.


And the occassional steroids.

Well, I WAS gonna say something about a drunken freakin' neck...

:lol:

Oh Kurt! Why must you let down the millions of little Kurtagins by choosing alcohol over milk!? WHYYYYYY!?!?!?!

I bet someone spiked his milk to sabotage him. ONLY LOGICAL EXPLANATION HERE.

Kurt was only drunk off not being crazy. Nothing insane here.

TNA should probably strip Angle of the TNA World Heavyweight Championship, and have the Reverse Battle Royal (Ew) turned into a Gauntlet for the Gold. Either that, or have Samoa Joe and Christian Cage compete for the vacant Championship.

I really don't think TNA can afford to NOT have Kurt drop the title in the ring, if they can at all avoid it.

The following is from TMZ.com:

Kurt Angle, the former WWE and current TNA wrestling star, was charged with DUI and careless driving after being pulled over on the afternoon of September 28.

Angle was arrested at his home in Moon Township, Penn. after a witness spotted a white Cadillac Escalade driving erratically after pulling out of a local bar. The registration of that vehicle led police to Angle's home, where cops say he admitted to driving the vehicle and that he had just left the bar in question.

Officers then say Angle showed "signs of intoxication," and they administered a field sobriety test, which he failed. Angle was then placed under arrest and taken to a local hospital where he refused to take a blood test.

No future hearing has been set.

Angle won an Olympic gold medal in freestyle wrestling in 1996. Calls to Angle's reps were not immediately returned.

He went willingly?

TNA should strip Angle of his championship. I know that's only going to hurt TNA, but come on.

Surprised they didn't just refer to him as a "former WWE wrestler."

It's because it wasn't Matt Boone reporting.

It is pretty ridiculous that they didn't catch him in the act and he admitted to driving. Doesn't sound right.

Dude, it's one of the 3 I's. INTEGRITY.

Idiocracy

The 4th 'I'.

Don't you mean "Idiocy".

Kurt Angle should get stripped of the TNA Title, and then have Jim Cornette make Samoa Joe vs. Christian Cage the main event, with the TNA World Title on the line. Samoa Joe wins when Matt Morgan helps him out, and Christian Cage then feuds with Matt Morgan (blaming his first pinfall loss on Morgan).

Angle can remain on TNA programming, claiming that management is against him, because he is unbeatable. Sting can claim that he knows he is in Angle's head, and that feud can continue. Maybe even have Angle chase Jay Lethal for the X-Division Championship until this mess sorts itself out.

The Reverse Battle Royal should be changed to a regular old "Gauntlet for the Gold" to decide the #1 Contender for the TNA World Heavyweight Championship. With Judas Mesias injured, Abyss (and Rhino, if you believe rumours) can be taken out of Monster's Ball, and inserted in here. Also have Sting participate. The other competitors can be Jeff Jarrett, Junior Fatu, Chris Harris, James Storm, Black Reign, Robert Roode, Eric Young, Kazarian, Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, Monty Brown and Lance Hoyt. It won't work out that way, but you have a solid mix of TNA stars, and some outside guys coming in with names, that can help pad the match, and make it look important. Scott Hall and Monty Brown and unlikely, but if Brown moved his family to Orlando, there would not be much travel involved. There are also rumours that Scott Hall is coming to TNA again, and while he's not as great as he used to be, he'd be entertaining in a team with Kevin Nash.

Give the win in that Gauntlet for the Gold to Monty Brown if he signs, if not, I've got no clue. Whoever can have the best match with Samoa Joe, I guess. It might be an unpopular decision, but Junior Fatu has been getting some good treatment by TNA recently, and if he signed a contract, a Joe vs. Fatu feud would not completely suck.

It's valid, actually. By admitting to driving the car, Angle forfeited his Fifth Amendment right to protection from self-incrimination. If he had shut his mouth and insisted that he hadn't been out and hadn't been driving, there'd have been no grounds for a citation, much less a court case: The field sobriety test was administered only because he admitted to driving, and it went downhill from there. Essentially, Angle told the cops that he was guilty of DUI, which was then verified from the FST.

If Angle had denied driving the car, there would have been next to no grounds for the officer administering a sobriety test.

This is what being in a backwater carny fed does to you, gives you too much free time to drive about like an asshole and get drunk.

This would have never happened on WWE's gruelling schedule. :)

Whoo, I work in Moon Township. I feel like a star now!

No, I'm still pathetic, but I feel good that my life was (sort of) endangered by Kurt Angle. :rofl:

Exactly. The Fifth Amendment protects you from incriminating yourself, it doesn't protect you from the stupid things you CHOOSE to say.

KURTS NEW 3 I's :INTOXICATED - INEBRIATED - INFLUENCED
